1,000 Day Gouda.
$11.99
per pound.
Holland is the iconic home of windmills, tulip booms, and Trader Joe's 1,000 Day Gouda Cheese. It was here that we found the veteran cheese makers who hold the secret to ideal affinage – the art of caring for aging cheese – necessary for aging Gouda for such a prolonged period of time. During the maturation process, the cheese loses close to a quarter of its original weight, as its moisture content slowly but surely evaporates, condensing its naturally salty, caramel-y, and supremely savory flavor profile, without drying out completely. It's an intricate balance, and one that produces an unbelievably flavorful cheese.

A Dozen Macarons Variés.
$4.99.
Trader Joe's A Dozen Macarons Variés features six vivacious flavors: Apricot, Coconut, Fig, Salted Caramel, Lemon, and Pistachio. With two Macarons of each flavor in a box, the assortment presents beautifully, resembling the appearance of a macaron display in a Paris pâtisserie or a local, upscale bake shop.

Almond Ginger Oatmeal Exfoliant Bar.
$2.99.
The French milling process refines the texture of this cream-colored Bar, ensuring a long-lasting, luxurious lather every time you suds up. Bits of colloidal oatmeal are visible throughout, which provide gentle exfoliation and create silky smooth skin, while the pleasantly fragrant Almond Ginger Scent leaves you feeling (and smelling) like you spent a day at the spa—without the price tag, of course. And like all of Trader Joe's health & beauty products, this French Milled Soap is never tested on animals.

The French milling process refines the texture of this cream-colored Bar, ensuring a long-lasting, luxurious lather every time you suds up. Bits of colloidal oatmeal are visible throughout, which provide gentle exfoliation and create silky smooth skin, while the pleasant Almond Ginger Scent leaves you feeling (and smelling) like you spent a day at the spa—without the price tag, of course. And like all of Trader Joe's health & beauty products, this French Milled Soap is never tested on animals.

Anipasto - Vegetables & Cherry Tomatoes.
$2.99.
Their so-called "semi-drying" approach removes some of the moisture, resulting in soft (but not mushy) veggies, with truly intensified aromas and flavors. Our Semi-Dried Antipasto Vegetables includes a medley of washed & cut veggies that are commonly used in Mediterranean cuisine—artichokes, zucchini, eggplant, and tomatoes. Our Antipasto Cherry Tomatoes are just tomatoes, but an extra-sweet variety. Once (semi) dried, both Antipastos are packed in extra virgin olive oil with garlic, oregano & salt. Either version is totally ready to open up and serve as part of your starter spread.

Arugula & Parmigiano Reggiano Ravioli.
$3.49.
Imported from Italy, Trader Joe's Arugula & Parmigiano Reggiano Ravioli is the real deal. Made with wheat flour, eggs, and durum wheat semolina, its pocket-like pasta shell is likely smoother and less dense than what you're accustomed to. And that's by design. Our supplier, who has been crafting authentic, Italian pasta for decades, employs a nifty noodle-making method that leaves the pasta sturdy and resilient, yet still very thin when cooked to al dente. You can really taste the filling in every bite, and in the realm of ravioli, well, it's all about the filling.

Bamba Peanut Snacks.
$0.99.
Made for us in Israel, where Bamba is far and away the best-selling snack in the country, Trader Joe's Bamba Peanut Snacks contain just four ingredients: corn grits, peanut paste, oil, and salt. First, the corn grits are "popped" under high pressure, turning them into long rope-like lines of white, unflavored puffs. Next, the puffs are cut into peanut-sized nuggets and air-baked for 20 seconds in a drying chamber, giving them an even crispier texture. Finally, the flavor magic happens, when the puffs are moved into large, rotating drums, where they are coated with hot, liquid peanut butter.

Banana Chips.
$1.49.
Trader Joe's Banana Chips come to us from the Philippines, where banana trees thrive in the year-round heat and humidity. The bananas are picked and peeled at peak ripeness, sliced into coin-sized medallions, and lightly fried in coconut oil, with a bit of sugar and natural banana flavor mixed in. You get a sweet, crunchy snack that's big on banana flavor, but free from those pesky partially hydrogenated oils and artificial flavors you'll find in other store-bought banana chips.

Bite Size Belgian Chocolate Cookies.
$2.49.
As their name clearly states, the Cookies are Bite Size. They're classic round biscuit cookies, crispy and slightly buttery – substantial enough to dunk in milk or coffee, yet delicate enough to virtually melt in your mouth. Sandwiched between two of these cookies is a generous layer of rich Belgian chocolate – this filling manages to be firm and creamy at the same time, which in itself is a miracle of modern confectionary technology. Enjoy them with the aforementioned beverages, or a mug of tea or cocoa; serve alongside a scoop of your favorite ice cream; or crumble and make a crust for a favorite cheesecake recipe.

Black Licorice Treads.
$2.49.
In case you were curious, we've named this Black Licorice after its uncanny resemblance to strips of black tire tread. Each soft & chewy, textured Tread measures about 7" long and 1½" wide— they're a total blast to eat. And with their attractive black sheen, they're also quite eye-catching, making them a fabulous addition to a fancy candy care package or dessert display, too.

Blue Stilton.
$10.99
per pound.
Trader Joe's Blue Stilton is ripe, creamy, and pleasantly mild, with a refined, nutty aftertaste. We made the trek to Nottinghamshire to find the best Stilton we could – in fact, ours has been named "Best Stilton" at the World Cheese Awards. And now, because the only thing we love more than great cheese is great value, we offer it for an outstanding price.

Cauliflower Pizza Crust.
$3.99.
With a base of riced cauliflower and corn flour, our Cauliflower Pizza Crust is a case of Italian tradition meeting modern nutrition. Unlike other crusts on the market that are held together with eggs or cheese (which translates to more calories), it's held together with cornstarch, potato starch, olive oil and sea salt. This simple grouping of ingredients has a much lower nutritional impact than regular, wheat-based crusts: each slice (1/6 of the Crust) has just 80 calories and zero grams of fat.Once baked, each Crust is crisp, yet soft-textured, with a mild, slightly nutty taste. We've found its flavor profile actually lends itself to more off-beat pizza creations.

Chicken Enchiladas Verde.
$6.99.
Our supplier starts with soft, chewy tortillas made from wheat and corn, then fills them with chicken breast, Monterey jack cheese, and a special enchiladas verdes sauce made from crushed tomatillo, onion, green chili peppers, and diced poblanos. You'll find this sauce both inside and poured over each rolled, stuffed tortilla, along with a generous sprinkling of Cotija cheese, green onion, and cilantro on top. Each bite is a warm, cheesy, chili-flavored experience — and a reminder of what drove those turistas so wild, all those years ago.

Comté.
$10.99
per pound.
Creamy, nutty, and delightfully fruity in flavor, Trader Joe's Comté is deliciously complex, with fine notes of freshly mown grass and a superb semi-firm mouth feel – due in no small part to it being aged for a minimum of 180 days before being sold. It's elegant enough to be served on its own in a cheeseboard, but truly shines when melted, as in a quiche or soufflé.

Crispy Crunchy Broccoli Florets.
$2.99.
You'll notice right away that the bright-green Florets are crisp, on account of being vacuum-fried. This is a popular method for prepping fruits & vegetables in Thailand (where our supplier resides), and it results in reduced fat content and virtually no residual grease. This means snacking fingers stay clean & happy! It also means that their Crispy Crunchy character and savory, green-broccoli flavor (only salt is added) combine for a satisfying snacking sensation. And unlike other handy snacks, this one contains no cholesterol—with 7g of fiber, and more vitamins than your standard potato chip.

Crispy Crunchy Mochi Rice Nuggets.
$2.99.
To make our version of Mochi Rice Nuggets, we enlisted a Japanese supplier who starts with a similar process used in making the more pliable version: steamed rice is kneaded until turned into a silky smooth paste. However, instead of forming it into chewy cakes or balls, this rice paste is stretched into long ropes, cut into bite-sized pieces, dried, and finally fried. The effect of that final step is the puffing up of the rice, creating chunks of jagged, Crispy, super-Crunchy joy. They are simply seasoned with sea salt, creating a delightfully scrumptious snack!

Daffodils.
$1.49.
Every year, at about this time, the Daffodil invasion begins. For about four or five weeks, our stores are filled with cute little green aliens – we did say invasion…The aliens quickly reveal themselves as stems, and like all aliens worth their B-movie status, they quickly transform into something completely different. As in all B-movies, the alien transformation requires a bit of human help. Here, the human's job is to place the aliens/ stems in a bit of water. Miraculously, and quickly, the aliens become gorgeous yellow flowers, aka Daffodils, and the world is safe once again! (Oh, and your table scape will look absolutely stunning, too…)

Dolmas.
$2.49.
Our supplier (who also happens to be the largest dolmas supplier in the world) takes Vine Leaves—as they call the leaves of the grapevine—and stuffs them by hand, one-by-one, with soft, succulent, white rice that's been mixed with chopped onions, bits of dill & mint, and seasoned with salt & black pepper. Each leaf is rolled snugly and folded to create a two-bite sized morsel. They're cooked to marry the flavors, creating a moist & tender bite—then finally packed in cans with soy oil.

English Coastal Cheddar.
$7.99
per pound.
Trader Joe's English Coastal Cheddar is fantastically rich, sharp, and mature. It comes from the coastal county of Dorset, where the lush grasses are best suited for cows to graze and create the rich, creamy milk that sets our Coastal Cheddar apart from the rest. And now, because the only thing we love more than great cheese is great value, we offer it for an outstanding price.

English Shelled Peas.
$3.49.
Unlike their snap and snow pea cousins, English Peas are encased in fibrous pods which must be removed before proper pea preparation can take place. Harvested when young and tender, our plump, bright green English Peasare shelled by hand to remove the pod and eliminate any mechanical damage, and then conveniently portioned in 10-ounce, microwaveable bags. Whether you serve them raw in grain salads, stirred into pasta or soups, or puréed in dips, you'll get fresh, slightly sweet pea flavor, tender, toothy texture, and best of all, no shelling required on your part.

Freeze Dried Red Seedless Grape Slices.
$2.99.
Trader Joe's Freeze Dried Red Seedless Grape Slices are just what their name suggests: sweet, tangy red seedless grapes that have been picked at peak ripeness, then immediately sliced and freeze-dried with their skins left on to lock in their intense flavor. Unlike most of the dried fruit you'd find at a grocery or convenience store, these Grapes are free from added sulfur (unsulfured), free from added sugar (unsweetened), and never exposed to any high temperatures in the drying process.

GIANT Peruvian Inca Corn.
$1.99.
Way back in the days of the Incan empire (approx. mid-15th-mid-16th centuries), toasted corn was a common snack. The Incas experimented widely with corn. They crossbred varieties to create bigger, more flavorful kernels. The white Peruvian corn used in our GIANT Peruvian Inca Corn is known as Maiz Cuzco, and is a direct descendent of varieties created and cultivated by the Incas. It's grown in Urubamba, Peru, in the Sacred Valley of the Incas, and it really is GIANT! In fact, the kernels are five times the size of the average North American corn kernels. When fried, the corn takes on a nutty flavor, and the size of the kernels translates to GIANT crunch! We've added some salt to round out the flavor. You don't need to be in a bar to enjoy them, but they do pair nicely with a cold beer.

Gelatos - Caramel Cookie Crunch & Pistachio.
$3.49.
Using the same centuries-old techniques of artisanal Italian gelato-makers (the word gelato itself simply means "frozen" in Italian), our supplier slow-churns these gelatos using actual machinery imported from Italy – they really take it that seriously. Both gelatos are rich, creamy, and intensely flavored, but express those flavors in different ways. Whereas the Caramel Cookie Crunch builds off of a base of vanilla with broadly sweet, delicious caramel swirls and crunchy bits of chocolate cookies, the density and full flavor of the Pistachio allows you to pick out the subtler nutty notes, accented by crunchy bits of actual pistachio nut.

Grana Padano Parmesan.
$10.99
per pound.
You can taste the centuries of perfection in each bite, too: each wheel of TJ's Grana Padano Parmesan is made with raw milk and aged for at least 18 months, meaning the sweet, savory, and nutty flavors are so profoundly concentrated that they actually manifest in the form of a fine, granular texture throughout the cheese. However you serve Trader Joe's Grana Padano Parmesan, be it shaved over some Arugula Ravioli, mixed in with a plate of Antipasti, or simply crumbled with a drizzling of balsamic vinegar, you can know with certainty that you're getting the real thing.

Japanese Style Fried Rice.
$2.99.
What exactly is Trader Joe's Japanese Style Fried Rice? It's a big favorite among our Crew Members, and a mainstay in our freezer case. More specifically, it's our take on takikomi gohan, a traditional Japanese style of rice flavored with soy sauce and mirin (a tangy rice wine). Our version contains shelled edamame, pieces of deep fried tofu, and thin strips of hijiki seaweed. What's inside the package you'll find in our freezers is fully cooked – you can heat it in minutes in a microwave or skillet or wok – and works brilliantly as either a side with a larger Japanese-inspired meal or as the main dish for a vegetarian feast.

Kung Pao Chicken.
$4.99.
Made just for us by a supplier whose cultural and culinary roots are steeped in Chinese tradition, Trader Joe's Kung Pao Chicken combines dark meat chicken with crunchy green & red bell peppers, onions, dried chili powder, water chestnuts and peanuts. What makes this Kung Pao so distinctive, though, is the sauce. Traditionally, sauces for this dish are rich and savory and can range from mildly spicy to sound-the-alarm-and-grab-a-hose hot. Ours falls in the medium-spicy range – the dish will taste substantially hotter if you actually eat the chili pieces, and a little less hot if you push the chilies to the side of the plate and treat them as a garnish. We think the heat level in our sauce makes it easy to share among friends who fall on opposite sides of the spicy foods debate.

Lemon Curd.
$2.99.
With flavors of rich butter and sweet sugar contrasted by bright, tangy lemon, you might refer to our Lemon Curdas "sunshine in a jar." After all, a spoonful of the stuff has the power to brighten up breakfast, baked goods, and all sorts of sweets and treats in between. Slather it on toast or stir it into yogurt. Drizzle it on pancakes, or ice cream, or cheesecake. If you want to get fancy, whip up some heavy cream and fold it into the Lemon Curd for an almost-effortless tart or layer cake filling worthy of a royal afternoon tea.

Mexican Style Roasted Corn.
$3.29.
For this at-home version of what's often called street corn, we've opted to take the kernels off the cob. In the bag are disks that magically melt into a creamy, smoky sauce as the corn heats – well, it seems magical, but it's really just basic thermodynamics. The sauce is also spiked with lime juice and studded with cilantro, lending additional authenticity. A packet of Cotija cheese is included in each package of Corn – when the corn is heated through and ready to serve, sprinkle the crumbled cheese on top. It's the ideal finishing touch to this crunchy, sweet, smoky, spicy dish. Present it as a side dish with a Mexican-inspired meal, serve it in individual ramekins as an appetizer course, or blend it with gently heated Artichoke Jalapeño Dip (found in our refrigerated case) for a unique dip for tortilla chips.

Organic Bolivia Tanaloma Small Lot Coffee.
$8.99.
The Organic, whole Arabica beans are shade-grown, wet processed, and then sun-dried on raised beds. Lightly roasted to complement the mild acidity and fruity notes of apple, pear, and apricot encapsulated in the beans, the coffee is then packed in nitrogen-flushed bags to ensure your first pot brews up as fresh-tasting, clean, and sweet as your last.

Organic Bolivian Yanaloma Small Lot Coffee.
$8.99.
Trader Joe's Bolivian Yanaloma Small Lot Coffee originates in the Apolobamba valley in western Bolivia, at about 5,000 feet above sea level— this area boasts a mild, tropical climate that's perfect for growing coffee. The organic, whole Arabica beans are shade-grown, wet processed, and then sun-dried on raised beds. Lightly roasted to complement the mild acidity and fruity notes of apple, pear, and apricot encapsulated in the beans, the coffee is then packed in nitrogen-flushed bags to ensure your first pot brews up as fresh-tasting, clean, and sweet as your last.

Organic EVOO from Spain.
$5.49.
Trader Joe's is a limited assortment store, meaning we don't carry 24 varieties of ketchup or a wall-full of mayonnaise. We tend to make exceptions to the whole "limited assortment" thing, though, when it comes to olive oil. There's just so much good stuff. From all over the world, really, from Italy to California, and Tunisia to Spain. Spain is a veritable treasure trove of olive groves – its rolling hills are home to some of the world's most flavorful olives, including those of the Picual variety, which are used in our Extra Virgin Olive Oil from Spain. Picual olives produce oil that is light green in color and a bit fruity, with a refreshing verdant flavor. Use this Oil in dressings or marinades or for dipping your favorite crusty bread.

Organic Italian Gigli & Orecchiete Pastas.
$2.69.
Our Organic Italian Artisan Pastas are made in small batches and dried slowly—up to 24 hours. Secondly, there are only two ingredients: 100% durum wheat semolina flour (sourced locally, from Puglian farms) and water. The artisan approach, combined with this traditional recipe yields a pale-yellow color, subtle flavor, and rustic texture that cooks in boiling water to an irresistible al dente in 12-15 minutes. Thirdly, and perhaps most obvious, are the traditional shapes: Orecchiete are shaped like "small ears," while Gigli are like little "bellflowers" with ruffled curls. Both shapes hold sauce extremely well, and we have so many options. Go classic with one of our many tomato-based sauces. Or, bring a little northern Italy to the plate with our Pesto alla Genovese. Of course, you can't go wrong with a simple toss in our Spanish Olive Oil with grated Grana Padano.

Organic King Coconut Water.
$1.19.
Sri Lanka is known is some circles as the "capital of coconuts," as its residents purportedly boast the highest consumption of coconut in the world. The most prized variety on the island is the aptly-named King coconut, known on the island for its rich oil content and clean, crisp taste, and known in our stores for filling each container of Trader Joe's Organic King Coconut Water. Organically grown and harvested by hand, our King Coconut Wateris simply that: coconut water. No sugar added, no concentrates used, nothing but remarkably refreshing, thirst-quenching coconut water, perfect for re-hydrating after a run or gym session.

Outside-In Stuffed Gnocchi.
$2.99.
Typically, gnocchi are served with sauce and cheese. Trader Joe's Outside-In Stuffed Gnocchi, however, are stuffed with sauce and cheese. Made for us in Italy, the veritable birthplace of gnocchi, they're the classic little wheat-flourand-potato pillows that you love, filled with savory tomato sauce and plenty of mozzarella cheese.

Pain Au Lait.
$2.99.
Trader Joe's Pain Au Lait, made for us in France from a traditional family recipe, is one of those products that makes all the travel worthwhile. Pain Au Lait translates directly to "Milk Bread," a truly humble name for these slightly sweet, dare-we-say-elegant, brioche-like rolls. Moist, eggy, and straightforward, they pair beautifully with butter and jam, and are perfect for daintily dipping (or deftly dunking) in coffee, tea, or hot chocolate. They also make first-rate dinner rolls – especially with dinners involving gravy – tasty afternoon snacks, or sandwich rolls that will have you craving sandwiches every day of the week. (We're considering a fusion-at-its-finest pairing with Bool Kogi right now.)

Pesto Alla Genovese.
$2.49.
The mixture is a verdant light green with a texture somewhere between a sauce and a paste—delivering all the green, nutty, cheesy, garlicky flavor you crave in Basil Pesto. It clings especially well to our Organic Italian Artisan Gigli Pasta, and also makes a great substitute for tomato sauce on your homemade pizza. Spoon it on Caprese salad or bruschetta. You can even use it to add some verve to your minestrone soup!

Pumpkin Pie.
$1.99.
What's better than a pie in the face? If you're in a classic, slapstick Hollywood comedy, well, nothing. But if you're at your neighborhood Trader Joe's, it's Pumpkin Pie in your face. Just in time for Pi Day. For just Pi (3.14) minus ΡΙΕ´/100 (1.15) or $1.99!

Saba Bananas.
$1.99.
Native to the Philippines (where they're a mainstay of local cuisine), and also known as mini Plantains, Saba Bananas have a lower sugar content and higher starch content than you'd normally encounter in your average, everyday banana. They can still be peeled and eaten raw, but they're primarily used for cooking, as heating them breaks down their starch molecules and gives them a more manageable, potato-like structure. Our Saba Bananasare peeled and lightly steamed prior to being individually flash frozen, so they're just soft enough to be defrosted and devoured as-is, added to your morning smoothie, or further cooked down for use in any recipe that calls for plantains.

Seeds & Grains Crispbread.
$2.99.
You may not be journeying for months on a knar (Viking merchant ship) anytime soon, but we think this Seeds & Grains Crispbread will be an excellent addition to your everyday diet anyway. In fact, our Crispbread comes from the land of the Vikings (Norway), and is made of seeds, seeds, and more seeds! Specifically, sunflower seeds, sesame seeds, and flaxseeds. The recipe is rounded out with straightforward ingredients like oat bran and wheat bran, rye flour, spelt bran, and oatmeal. It all adds up to a grand total of 4g of protein and 3g of dietary fiber per single cracker. (No wonder Vikings could live off of these!) They're mildly salty with a coarse, crumbly texture that yields a gratifying crunch every time you munch. Enjoy them alone or broken into soup. Try them with hummus or some spicy Zhoug Sauce – or both!

Thai Lime & Chili Cashews.
$7.99.
Every batch of Trader Joe's Thai Lime & Chili Cashews begins with a particular variety of lime, singular to Thailand, that has an almost perfume-y flavor. The cashews are, of course, crunchy; slices of tiny red and green chiles add a burst of flavor and a good deal of heat; and the vibrant, almost-otherworldly flavor of lemongrass rounds out the picture. We're pretty sure the grocer down the street doesn't have snacks like this one – or stories like this one, either!

Tikka Vegetables.
$1.99.
Tikka Vegetables, inspired by a dish from the Punjab region of northern India, is a chunky vegetable dish. Carrots, potatoes, corn, and peas have been cooked with cashews in a creamy tomato sauce, with aromatic spices, such as cumin, cardamom, and turmeric. The inclusion of fenugreek leaf lends particularly authentic flavor to the dish.

Whole Pineapple.
$2.99.
Finding the perfect pineapple can be somewhat of a treasure hunt, but at Trader Joe's, you'll strike gold every time. Grown for us in Costa Rica, our Pineapples are harvested at the peak of ripeness, when the golden fruit is heavy with bright, sweet-tart juice. To really unlock the Pineapple's potential, peel it, core it, and slice it into rounds, spears or chunks. Then serve those slices alone, in a fruit salad, in a smoothie, in a cocktail, blended with yogurt, etc. Pineapple also happens to be one of those fruits that's delicious fresh and cooked, so don't be afraid to grill or broil those slices. Or to add them to a pizza—if that's what floats your boat, never mind the naysayers!

Zhoug Sauce.
$2.99.
Zhoug Sauce arrived on our refrigerated shelves a little more than a year ago, and it's been flying off those shelves as quickly as we can get it ever since. This is understandable – the first time we tasted it, we knew it was something special, and our hopes that it would resonate with you, our Customers, have come true! The ingredients are straightforward: cilantro, canola oil, jalapeño peppers, chile flakes, garlic, cardamom, sea salt, and cumin seeds. Our label reads "very spicy," and this is very true – unless you're the type that eats ghost peppers for breakfast, that is.
